We’re delighted to welcome Jack Darbyshire to the Warrington Wolves Community Foundation as our new Community Activator!

A Warrington lad through and through, Jack knows first-hand the opportunities that rugby can provide. He came through our Scholarship and Academy programmes, before progressing into the Reserves, while at community level he started out with Culcheth before making the move to Woolston Rovers.

Although Jack no longer plays rugby, he’s now looking to give something back to the town that played such a big part in his own journey.

His aim is simple: to make a positive impact on the lives of young people across Warrington.

For Jack, that means helping young people become not just better rugby players, but better people — while continuing to develop himself as a coach and maintaining the connection with the community that helped shape him.

From coming through our programmes to now helping deliver them, we’re delighted to have Jack back as part of the Foundation.

Welcome to the team, Jack! 💙🐺

On Monday, teams made up of our PDRL players, Foundation staff, volunteers and friends took to the field for a special charity touch rugby game, held in memory of Will Ogden.

Will was much more than a Warrington Wolves supporter. He was part of the Wolves Foundation family, coming through our LDP programme, representing our Prospects and our Development Academy at Priestley College, and even completing his work experience with us.

Away from the Foundation, Will also represented both Crosfields and Woolston Rovers, making his mark across the local rugby league community.

Monday was a chance for that community to come together, remember Will, celebrate the person he was and the game he loved.

CEO of the Foundation Lee Mitchell says “There is something incredibly powerful about people coming together and feeling that they are part of something bigger than themselves. I’m incredibly proud of everyone who pulled together to represent the Foundation, remember Will and support such an important cause. Will was part of our family and he will forever be remembered.”

All funds raised from the day will be donated to PAPYRUS, supporting their vital work in su***de prevention and helping young people who are struggling.

Once a Wire, always a Wire. 💛💙

For Will.

A special day at the Halliwell Jones Stadium for our holiday camp kids!

Today, they had the opportunity to watch the Warrington Wolves first team train, before meeting the players for photos and autographs.

It’s about more than just meeting their heroes. It’s about keeping the younger generation engaged, helping them feel connected to their club and showing them that they have a place within the Warrington Wolves family.

These young people are the future of our club, and through the Foundation, we’re proud to create unique opportunities that bring them closer to the players, the stadium and the badge they’re growing up around. 💛💙

Last week, Luke Yates joined us at our Disability Holiday Camp, getting stuck into some tag rugby and spending time with the participants.

But some of the most valuable moments came away from the action, as Luke took the time to listen to the participants talk about why they love the Wire, what the club means to them and what makes being part of the Wolves family so special. 🐺

For Luke, experiences like this are an important part of life as a first-team player. It’s a chance to meet supporters from across our community, understand the people behind the badge and see first-hand the work happening every day through the Warrington Wolves Community Foundation.

Our disability programmes are a huge part of what we do — creating opportunities for people of all abilities to enjoy sport, build connections and feel part of the Wolves family.

And sometimes, spending an afternoon listening, joining in and seeing that work first-hand can be just as valuable for the player as it is for those taking part.

One club. One community.

There was a special buzz around our Rugby League Holiday Camp today as Zack Gardner dropped in to spend some time with everyone.

For the kids, it wasn’t simply about meeting a first-team player. Zack is someone who’s come through our pathway programme, he’s wearing the same badge they proudly support — a reminder that the journey to the first team can start right here in Warrington.

The excitement on their faces, the questions they asked and the stories they couldn’t wait to share afterwards are exactly what these opportunities are all about.

And for Zack, days like this are valuable too — building confidence, developing his communication and learning what it means to be a role model both on and off the field.

Behind so many of the moments we capture at the Foundation are volunteers who give their time, skills and passion to help tell our story.

One of those people is Luis, who has been volunteering with us for the past few months, supporting the Foundation with photography and videography — and more recently getting involved in some of our joint projects with Warrington Wolves.

For Luis, volunteering has been about much more than picking up a camera.
“Volunteering at the Warrington Wolves Foundation has really opened my eyes to the togetherness and pride that this town possesses. The effort and teamwork that goes on behind the scenes is something that makes me very proud to be part of this community.

“Being a part of this team has also opened doors to many other opportunities that would not be possible without the guidance and personalities within the team and I cannot thank them enough for that.”

We’re incredibly grateful to Luis for the time, creativity and enthusiasm he brings to the team — and it’s brilliant to see volunteering opening new doors for him along the way.

Because volunteering isn’t just about giving your time. It’s about belonging, developing, meeting people and being part of something bigger. 💙

Thank you, Luis! 👏📸

Next Thursday, we’re bringing the story of the Heroes of the Wire Memorial Bike Ride to the big screen at Cineworld Warrington — and we’d love to see as many Wire fans there as possible.

As part of our 150th anniversary celebrations, our riders travelled more than 230 miles across France and Belgium, visiting the battlefields, memorials and cemeteries where Warrington players who made the ultimate sacrifice are remembered.

We captured the journey on film, bringing together the stories of our fallen players, the history of our club and the experiences of the people who made the journey.

Now, you can experience it for yourself.

📅 Thursday 20 August
⏰ 6:50pm
📍 Cineworld Warrington
🎟️ Tickets just £5

This is more than a documentary about a bike ride. It’s a chance for the Warrington Wolves community to come together during our 150th year, learn more about the people who helped shape our club and ensure their stories continue to be remembered.

Bring your family, bring your fellow Wire fans and join us for what promises to be a very special evening.

🎟️ Get your tickets now: https://donate.givetap.co.uk/f/warrington-wolves-community-foundation/heroes-of-the-wire

150 years of the Wire. One club. A history worth remembering. 💙🌹
